There are many easy to follow trails from the village to the hills including those to the famous Barranco Ravine and the Roque de El Conde, the table topped mountain behind the town.

The town itself is an oasis of peace with a shady square, the Plazza del Cristo de la Salud in the centre. Here you can sit in a pavement café under the trees andsavour the inactivity, so different from the frenetic resorts of the south coast. The balconies on the houses are laden with pots and window boxes adding to the pleasure of the onlooker.
